Description
I am always looking at ways to speed up our page loads. One easy way to get a bit more speed is to load the YUI library directly from Yahoo's servers. They do allow this and have a page dedicated to doing it here: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/articles/hosting/
I am attaching a patch that is a simple modification to the ajaxlib.php file. It also relies on a CFG parameter to be set. The default is to load the files from the local filesystem. Only if the CFG variable is set will it load them from Yahoo.
One thing that I would like to change with this is that I had to hardcode the YUI version number. It would be great if that was an easier bit of information to pull dynamically. I thought about parsing the YUI README file to get the version, but felt like that was a bit sloppy.

Hi Nico,
aren't there limits (restrictions) about js only being able to connect to server it comes from, or something similar. Or perhaps I'm wrong and that's only java applets.
Anyway, sounds ok for me to provide that ability via CFG parameter. +1 for it.
Ciao 
Improved Bryce's patch and applied. YUI version number is kept in a simple version.php file, to be updated manually when updating the YUI libraries.
